After Shi Mu put away the beast soul bag, he glanced at the valley that was mostly covered by collapsed rocks, then rushed up into the sky and flew towards the west side of the valley.
After flying for about half a day, some green colors gradually appeared in his sight, and the vitality of heaven and earth in the air gradually became thicker.
Seeing this, Shi Mu dropped down a little, his consciousness suddenly released, and he probed towards the earth.
A moment later, a red light suddenly lit up over a green mountain range, and a huge red fist with a radius of ten feet fell from the sky and hit the ground heavily.
There was a loud "rumbling" sound, and the entire mountain range shook violently.
A wave of air visible to the naked eye, centered on the mountain forest where the fist shadow fell, swept out in all directions.
Wherever it passed, all the trees seemed to have been cut in half, broken from the center.
Shi Mu's figure slowly fell from the sky, standing in the messy mountain forest. He glanced at the dozens of corpses of the innate-level vine demons lying in the forest, and reached out to grab them.
I saw balls of green soul fire floating out from the vine demons that had broken into several sections, and they all fell into the beast soul bag in Shi Mu's hand.
"Too weak, but not enough..." Shi Mu weighed the beast soul bag in his hand and said to himself.
After saying that, the light on his body flashed, he rose into the sky again, and continued to search towards the west.
…
at dusk.
On a hillside outside a small black city, Shi Mu sat cross-legged on a flat rock, holding two spiritual stones in his hands to restore the true energy in his body.
At this time, his beast soul bag was already bulging, filled with a large amount of monster soul fire.
In this most of the day, he killed all the monsters he could detect wherever he passed.
Although these monsters are all low-level monsters that are innate and below, and they do not require much energy to kill, flying for a long time and using their spiritual consciousness to explore large areas still make them a little tired.
After a while, Shi Mu let go of his hand, threw down the two spiritual stones that had lost all their spiritual power, and stood up.
He glanced at the small black city, watching the afterglow of the sunset coating the city wall with a light golden color. For some reason, he suddenly missed the Fengcheng in his hometown.
The scenes of life there in the past, now that I think about it, seem like a world away and become less real.
Along the way, he passed through seven or eight cities, most of which were not as big as the small black city in front of him. The largest one among them was still far behind Tianyu City on the Blue Sea Star.
In addition, in some wooded mountain valleys, Shi Mu also discovered some large or small sect forces. Although most of them adopted some concealment methods and had some prohibitive barriers, in front of Shi Mu today, naturally
It is in name only.
However, Shi Mu did not enter these cities or sects. At this moment, he was focused on collecting monster soul fire and did not want to cause any further trouble.
After staying here for a while, Shi Mu waved his hand and launched the Lingyu Speeder, soared into the sky and flew back in the direction he came from.
At night.
Shi Mu fell from a high altitude and saw that the sealing formation at the entrance of the cave was still intact, so he stepped towards the cave.
In the huge mortar at the end of the cave, Yan Luo was still sleeping soundly on the hay. Shi Mu walked up to her and looked at her for a while, then sat down, turned his palm, and took out the bulging beast soul bag.
He held the mouth of the beast soul bag with his palm and gently opened it to make a small opening. More than a hundred green balls of soul fire floated out and spread in the cave.
Shi Mu looked at Yan Luo intently, his brows slightly furrowed and his expression a little nervous. He didn't know whether Yan Luo could swallow the soul fire while he was asleep.
I saw those soul fires fluttering up and down in the cave for a while, and then began to dissipate little by little, but Yanluo never responded.
This made Shi Mu feel a little disappointed.
However, at this moment, a ball of soul fire drifted slowly to a position in front of Yanluo. The lotus-shaped black spirit pattern mark on her forehead suddenly lit up with a ray of light, exuding a weak suction force.
The soul fire only trembled slightly, and then it was pulled towards his forehead and disappeared into it in a flash.
Shi Mu was overjoyed, and with a wave of his hand, he bound the remaining dozens of soul fires together and sent them to Yan Luo.
Those soul fires were also illuminated by the light of the spiritual pattern, turning into little bits of light and integrating into Yanluo's body.
Shi Mu no longer hesitated, and opened the mouth of the beast soul bag in his hand. Hundreds of thousands of soul fires flew out from the mouth of the bag like dancing butterflies, covering the entire cave and covering the surrounding mountain walls.
All reflected in colorful colors.
Under Shi Mu's guidance, all these soul fires surged towards the glow of the spirit pattern on Yan Luo's forehead. After a while, a vortex of soul fire was formed, flowing continuously into Yan Luo's body.
Half a day passed like this, and when the last ball of soul fire was absorbed by Yanluo, the lotus spirit pattern on his forehead was still lit. It was obvious that he was not satisfied and was still craving for more soul fire.
After Shi Mu let go of his spiritual consciousness to investigate, he found that Yanluo's soul fire was more stable than before, and the connection with his own soul was also a little stronger, and then a trace of satisfaction appeared on his face.
"It seems that as long as there are enough monster souls, Yanluo will be fine." Shi Mu murmured to himself.
But then, he frowned again.
Yanluo now has peak strength in the heavenly realm, and his soul is also extremely powerful. If he wants to repair it, just relying on the soul fire of these low-level monsters is obviously a drop in the bucket, and he doesn't know how long it will take to collect it.
If you want Yanluo to recover as soon as possible, you must find more soul fires of more powerful monsters. However, just relying on your own spiritual consciousness to explore a little bit is really inefficient. Maybe there can be a more convenient and effective way.
Shi Mu thought for a while, rolled his eyes slightly, and seemed to have something in mind.
He immediately stood up and walked out of the cave.
…
A mountain peak nearly 1,000 feet high stands in the vast sea of clouds, mountains, and mist. It looks majestic and straight, somewhat arrogant among the others.
There are strange rocks and cliffs everywhere on the mountain, and all kinds of towering trees that can't be hugged by a few people are also densely packed all over the mountain.
However, at the top of the mountain, the terrain is much flatter. There are more than a hundred tall and short buildings standing here. The buildings are basically blue and made of precious paulownia wood and large pieces of bluestone.
In the center of the building complex, there is a bluestone square, paved with very flat bluestones, sparkling and quite gorgeous.
In the center of the square, there is a huge bronze tripod every few feet, which is several feet high. It is divided into three rows, with three in each row, a total of nine. From time to time, green smoke rises from the tripod, exuding a faint smell, condensation.
Rather than scattering.
Beside the square, three tall palace buildings stand here.
The three palaces are all decorated with dragons and phoenixes, and they are very beautifully built. There are also faint signs of spiritual power fluctuations on the palaces, and it is obvious that there are restrictions on the layout.
A golden plaque hangs on a palace in the center, with the three characters "Shangqing Palace" written on it. The door of the main hall is open, and the interior is quite spacious. In the innermost part, there are three huge sculptures of gods, who are the Taoist Sanqing saints.
Above the main hall, there are four or five figures sitting here in order of priority, talking to each other.
The person in the middle is a middle-aged man with a square face, wearing a purple Taoist robe, with a Yin Yang Bagua tattooed on his chest, holding a floating pole, and a dignified demeanor. He seems to be the leader here, and his aura of peak innateness is undoubtedly revealed.
Several other people were also wearing Taoist uniforms, and they were headed by a vaguely middle-aged man with a square face.
"Brother, the leader, this matter is indeed very strange. Yesterday, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth suddenly rioted in the Donglan Mountains, and the scale was very terrifying, far beyond our imagination. However, this fluctuation only lasted for a moment, and then disappeared immediately.
Trace." A short and fat Taoist man said.
"This matter seems quite strange. Could it be that some exotic treasure has been discovered?" Next to the short and fat man was a middle-aged Taoist nun. Her eyes lit up and she asked.
"It's not a sign of the birth of a strange treasure. Yesterday I happened to be near the Donglan Mountains, and the spiritual energy turmoil seemed to come from the sky. I don't know why." The short and fat man said.
Several other people's faces suddenly showed disappointment.
"In any case, the Donglan Mountain Range is not far from our ** Sect. Junior Brother Tian will send people to explore the Donglan Mountain Range later to see if there is anything unusual." The middle-aged leader in the center said.
"Yes." The short, fat man agreed.
The middle-aged leader was about to say something else, when he suddenly frowned and looked towards the center of the hall.
There was a young man in a green robe standing with his hands behind his back without warning.
"Who are you, your Excellency? How dare you trespass on our ** Sect!" Several people in the hall followed the leader's gaze and turned to look. Their expressions suddenly changed, and they all jumped up. The short and fat man shouted.
This green-robed man was Shi Mu. He glanced at a few people before his eyes fell on the middle-aged leader.
"See, you are the person in charge here?" Shi Mu did not answer the other party, but asked, his words full of no doubt.
"Master Jade Cauldron, I am the head of the ** Sect, Your Excellency..." The middle-aged head couldn't see through Shi Mu's cultivation and said with a slight frown.
"Master Jade Cauldron, I'm here to ask you, where are the monsters near you that have cultivation levels above the earth level?" Shi Mu directly interrupted the other party and asked.
When the middle-aged head heard this, his expression was stunned, and he seemed to have no reaction for a while.
"Didn't you hear what I said clearly?" Shi Mu's face darkened, and a vague pressure suddenly burst out.
"Be bold!"
Above the main hall, the other people who were about to speak looked horrified when they saw this. Various lights lit up on their bodies, and they held hand seals. The short and fat man looked the most anxious. A red light flashed in front of him.
A long red sword was sacrificed, its surface blazing with flames. (To be continued.)
